Therefore you will see “Made in Western Germany” stamped onto certain of the chrome hardware (see pic examples). Divided country, separated post World War II into. Too, in 1975, the Cold War was still well underway with Germany a. Thus, there is no question as to the legitimacy of date of manufacture. While it was well-used, it was also very well cared for, hence you may notice in the pics the beautiful rosewood shells are devoid of gashes and scratches that are almost always found in used wooden drums, especially of this age. I never could have afforded them otherwise and really, at the time, couldn’t then either. That is, drum by drum or certain stands and not others. Omitting accessories, cases, cymbals, etc. I encourage interested buyers that may understandably be focused on the drums and stands only i. In the’70s the set was top-of-the-line and still holds its own (and then some) when compared to the best products available today. Overview: This offer is for a 1975 SONOR Phonic 8 piece drum set, stands, cases, cymbals and more. And suggestions to this listing and they will be posted and shared for your consideration (see Viewer Q&A below). I’ll happily respond to all questions comments, observations. This listing is “in progress” with pics and descriptive information being added or updated on an ongoing basis. For informational updates (ongoing) please r ead progress reports further down for specifics.
